After starting her career in photojournalism and later working within the framework of the “new documentary photography,” Lurdes R.

Her current practice includes the intervention of archives, collective work, video editing, and photographic creation focused on (self-)portraiture—tools through which she explores alternative discursive narratives in contrast to the inherited visual imaginary.
